France Burning to the Ground | The Nick DiPaolo Show #1961

Let's get to France burning.

Uh, violent rioting over the weekend in France.

Uh, unrest is mainly high school students protests over teacher shortages, overcrowded classrooms, and deteriorating buildings, and it spread nationwide with fires, school blockades, and clashes with police.

Actual schools were burning.

Um, 4 to 500 schools are expected to remain fully or partly closed.

Do you hear that? [laughs] That's a lot of fucking schools.

Yeah.

Um, here's a little footage if you don't believe me.

[laughs]

Elections which could end up as a direct contest between the hard left and the far right national rally.

[screams] Its leader, Marine Le Pen, sharing this video of police women being chased down-

What the hell's going on out there?

... and demanding a new anti-riot law.

Anti-riot law.

That accent can make a riot sound classy.

[laughs]

You know? Um, officials report 24 schools burned or vandalized, 78 education staff injured, or roughly 5,000, and roughly 5,000 arrests.

Is this another video? Oh, beautiful.

[upbeat music] Oh.

Looks like America.

Oh.

Uh, they still make those alarms-

Yeah.

[laughs]

... where the horn goes off? Uh, that's why I moved out of Queens, by the way.
